Landmark Instant, the no-setup way for your chat to pay to change your camera

Landmark Instant gives a streamer's chat something to pay for in a few minutes of setup. A viewer opens the streamer's link, types what they want to see, for example "make him a cartoon" or "put him on the moon", pays a few dollars, and the camera feed turns into that, live, for however long they paid for. Then it goes back to normal. Chat sees it happen the second they pay.

Landmark Instant: the camera and the world, side by side

There is also a live generated game world the streamer can play on stream that chat changes while they play, with small add-ons that stack on top of each other: one viewer buys world time, another adds an action, another spawns an event, all running at once.

Setup

Log in with Twitch or Kick. Switch on a redeem and set what it costs and how long it runs. Open the camera page and add it to OBS as a window capture. Put the link in chat. No bank details are needed to start, and there are a few free runs so the streamer sees it on their own camera before anyone pays. A bank gets added later, whenever they want to take money out.

Money

The streamer sets every price. Running the effect has a flat per-second cost, a redeem can't be priced below that cost plus the card fee, and the rest of the payment is the streamer's. Five dollars for thirty seconds is a typical setting. Viewers pay through Stripe with no account, prompts are moderated before anything reaches the feed, and payouts go through Stripe.

Where it sits

Instant is the no-setup end of Landmark, a stream interaction and monetization suite at landmark.stream: the same camera paid with bits as well as tips, overlays, alerts and small games the streamer describes in a sentence and Landmark builds, alerts and chat from every platform in one place, live captions and chat translation per viewer. Instant exists for people who want to see one thing work before they set any of that up.
